Omega-3 is found in many different forms. Dr. Sears discusses the best available sources on Breakfast TV.

I noticed that with some prenatal vitamins some have the omega 3 pill with them and some contain DHA. Is there a difference or is DHA a form of Omega-3?

I am using the Omega 3 from Vitamin World for weight loss and they said that its better to use the Flaxseed.

My dermatologist is away and I just got three cysts on my face–within a week =/ They are red and painful and don’t seem to want to come to a head. The rest of my face is clear.

I keep reading different things– ice it, put a hot compress on it, put polysporin on it (even though it is closed?), take omega 3 & 6 supplements, drink plenty of water, take ibuprofen…

I can’t do it all, and all of the mixed information is confusing me. When I put a hot compress on it, I think it was too hot and I pressed down too hard, because now the surrounding area is red too. I don’t know if I made it worse or if this is just the natural evolution of the frigging things.

To further complicate things, some sources say that putting a hot compress will help the cyst come to a head, others say the hot compress will allow your body to reabsorb it… does ANYONE have some solid info? HELP

Is it just the increase in omega 3 and if so can regular eggs have flaxseed or an omega 3 oil added and give the same benefits?

When I look at the nutritional information on the back of my fish oil supplements, I see that they contain some cholesterol. I remember seeing fish oil pills in the store that were marketed as having no cholesterol. What is the difference between the two, and is the cholesterol in the pills I have hurting me or helping me?
